Packaging and branding can be confusing. Having a team of expert printers (some with over 30 years experience), means we've had our fair share of learning opportunities. That's why we've developed an FAQs page to help.
 
These cannabis packaging FAQs include real questions from people just like you. And, through each question, project, job, and client, our account executives have been there to help our clients every step of the way.

  • What makes GoldLeaf Print & Packaging different?
    GoldLeaf Print & Packaging specializes in using digital print technology to create packaging in the cannabis industry. How does this affect our clients? As a US based printer, this means we can create boxes with no tariffs, low minimum order quantities, and quick turnaround times⁠—often in just a few short weeks⁠. And, with our digital foil and varnish embellishment capabilities, it eliminates the need for foil dies⁠—saving hundreds of dollars.
  • How do I find a cannabis packaging company?
    If you've made it to our FAQs page, you've probablly already completed step 1—searching Google. Step 2- Next, it's important to understand what goal you want to accomplish by hiring a cannabis packaging company. Make sure the printing company you choose reflects those values. For example, at GoldLeaf Print & Packaging, we want to provide customized cannabis packaging that protects your jars, cannisters, or other products. If that describes you, let's chat. Step 3- Consider the bigger picture. Make sure the company you're interested in partnering with can scale with your business. It can be very time consuming using multiple vendors. Consider a single-source solution such as GoldLeaf Print & Packaging that can handle everything from boxes and stickers to promotional items and direct mail campaigns. Step 4- Request Samples. Your printed products and packaging is an extension of your brand. Therefore, it's a decision that should be thought out. Be sure the quality of what you're purchasing matches all your brand's quality standards. Step 5- Compile your options and make a decision. Step 6- Send art files to your chosen printer. If you opted for a single-source solution like mentioned in step three, they often have graphic designers that can help create packaging designs, logos, or other collateral. Or, if you already have print-ready files, ask your cannabis packaging company the best method for delivering.
